The stark red and black, the careful curvature in each line encompassed a harmony of life. Though I was very young at the time, that impression never left me. Arguably, it was a bare and understated experience of one of many Indigenous cultures in this country. I didn’t know anything about the people or their identity, just that one way they expressed themselves. Today, I am a practicing social worker living in Ontario. Through my education, I have come to understand the injustices placed upon others by us and by many of the methods we use to this day. I have been thinking about my responsibility, as a young professional, and how I might be part of the process of reconciliation. '' === '''This brings us to Salish Speaks.''' === With my privilege and position, I have the opportunity to actively participate in addressing the injustices faced by Indigenous people as a result of this profession. The Salish refers to the Indigenous peoples who have endured in the Pacific Northwest. Depending on where you look, the meaning of “Salish” generally refers to a “''great and mighty people''.” By calling this Salish Speaks, I hope for it to be interpreted as a place where those great and mighty voices can be amplified for others to hear. Since we spend so much time talking (and I see the irony in my opening) we should become better listeners. My intention is to use this space to document the relationship between Indigenous Canadians and social work, and the ways in which we can improve our understanding of others, become more capable of providing services, and ultimately be part of the reconciliation process. My intention is to base the majority of my content on primary sources, those with lived experience, and those who have been impacted by the acts of this profession. To the best of my ability, I will ensure my sources are consistent with this goal or otherwise substantiated as closely as possible. My intention, too, is to acknowledge that power dynamics still work in my favour. I have privilege over others and the potential to cause harm. I intend to be accountable for my learning, for how my lens colours others, and for repairing errors. I want to show that there are strides to be made, and I'll make them.

Arguably, it was a bare and understated experience of one of many Indigenous cultures in this country. I didn’t know anything about the people or their identity, just that one way they expressed themselves. Today, I am a practicing social worker living in Ontario. Through my education, I have come to understand the injustices placed upon others by us and by many of the methods we use to this day. I have been thinking about my responsibility, as a young professional, and how I might be part of the process of reconciliation. '' === '''This brings us to Salish Speaks.''' === Salish refers to the Indigenous peoples who have endured in the Pacific Northwest. Depending on where you look, the meaning of “Salish” generally refers to a “''great and mighty people''.” By calling this Salish Speaks, I hope for it to be interpreted as a place where many different great and mighty voices can be amplified for others to hear. Since we spend so much time talking (and I see the irony in my opening) we should become better listeners. My intention is to use this space to document the relationship between Indigenous Canadians and social work, and the ways in which we can improve our understanding of others, become more capable of providing services, and ultimately be part of the reconciliation process. My intention is to base the majority of my content on primary sources, those with lived experience, and those who have been impacted by the acts of this profession. To the best of my ability, I will ensure my sources are consistent with this goal or otherwise substantiated as closely as possible. <br> Active Pages: <be> <br> [[Professionalism]] <br> [[Abuse in Residential Schools]] TBD [[Intergenerational Trauma]] Legislation // [[Child, Youth and Family Services Act (CYFSA)]] 48bd77857b6a048e44d2610077c72feb2778e71a 6 2 6 2023-07-23T23:32:52Z Aelverson 1 wikitext text/x-wiki Xhuwaji, ​Haida Grizzly, 1990.
